Nana Patekar revealed he was burnt during the climax scene of Parinda, his skin had peeled off and he was hospitalised for 60 days.
Nana Patekar, one of the country's most talented actors, revealed in a recent interview that he was burned during the climax scene of Parinda, which left him unable to work for an entire year. He also mentioned that his skin had peeled off.
In an interview with The Lallantop, Nana Patekar said that Jackie Shroff was initially approached for his role in Parinda, but Patekar eventually got the part. While talking about the climax scene, he said, "it was a real fire. I was burning. After that shoot, I couldn’t do anything for a year. I was hospitalised for 60 days. The scene where you see me trying to escape the fire, I was burning. All my skin had peeled off… there was none left. There was no beard, mustache, eyebrow, or eyelids left. For six months, I was on complete rest.”
Nana Patekar further mentioned that the accident was extremely risky and it took just five seconds for him and the entire set-up to catch fire. “In the first take, we put three buckets, in the second we put 14 buckets, so the fire was intense. However, it was an accident, it wasn’t that Vinod (director Vidhu Vinod Chopra) wanted me to burn. It just happened,” he stated.
Nana Patekar then shared another incident from the sets of Salaam Bombay, directed by Mira Nair, where he was accidentally stabbed. He revealed that no one realised he had been injured. He recounted, "You remember a scene where this guy comes and stabs me? For that scene, they had tied a tyre around my waist, but with the force that the boy stabbed me, the knife stabbed me and I was bleeding. They thought, ‘Kya acting ki hai’. These sort of accidents keeps happening."
On the work front, Nana Patekar, who is gearing up for his next project, Anil Sharma’s Journey, was last seen in The Vaccine War.
